I am well on my way to becoming one of those systematic gurus that even Martha would envy! Now I can find my wine bottles more quickly!
I built a wine cellar in the cold storage room a while back.
I found this while cleaning out my office |
| I bought this paper about a year ago for the Cricut, but hadn't used it. It was 5o% off the markdown price! Good score. The only problem was it really didn't stick well and kept coming off. My solution was to use contact cement. |
Hubby took up the art of beer brewing from grains, which I must say,
is much more intense than making raspberry wine.
He has been filling the wine storage with beer.
Back to the art of drinking....I mean organizing.
I used my label maker to make labels for each batch, which was great, but when I came across the above mentioned chalkboard paper, I knew I could make it even better!
 |
| See how hard it is to read the words on the picture? Well that's what it was like trying to find the perfect wine. |
This is what I did......
 |
| Chalkboard paper was cut into strips using the handy grid on the back. |
 |
| A cardboard jig cut out to the size of the chalkboard paper. |
 |
| Jig is laid over the area to be sprayed and the over spray stays contained! |
 |
| Adhesive is sprayed to chalkboard paper too. I used a contact cement aerosol. Both surfaces are sprayed, left to dry and then adhered to one another for an excellent bond. |
 |
| Then the unthinkable happened. I ran out of chalkboard paper. Luckily sister number two had the same stash and rescued me! Thank you Sister Number Two.!!!! I owe you a bottle. Take your pick! As you can see below, I took a lot of pictures! A lot!! |
Luckily there is always room for more!
Cheers.
